| 1. Status of
Terms
1.1 These terms constitute a legal document ("the Agreement"),
which sets out the rights and obligations of you as a purchaser ("you"),
and those of Plants by Post ("Plants by Post", "we"
or "us"), in relation to the services and products offered
by us through this site. By registering for Plants by Post services,
you agree to the terms of this Agreement, and you re-affirm that agreement
every time you use any of our services.
1.2 You agree to:
1.2.1 provide true, accurate, current and complete information about
you as prompted by our order form (such information being the "Order
Data"); and
1.2.2 If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not
current or incomplete, or Plants by Post has reasonable grounds to
suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or
incomplete, Plants by Post has the right to suspend or terminate your
account, cease supply and refuse you any and all current or future
use of the Plants by Post site (or any portion of it).
2. Place of performance and applicable
law.
Unless otherwise specified, the materials on this site are directed
solely at those who access this site from the United Kingdom mainland. Plants by Post makes no
representation that any product referred to in the materials on this
site is appropriate for use, or available, in other locations. Those
who choose to access this site from other locations are responsible
for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local laws are
applicable. English law shall govern this Agreement. You and we each
submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts in relation
to disputes arising out of this Agreement.
3. Placing an order
3.1 A notice will be displayed on your web browser before you submit
an order with Plants by Post ("the Pre-contract Notice").
The Pre-contract Notice contains important information such as a description,
price (including export taxes) and delivery charges of the good or
services ordered. Plants by Post suggests that you print off a hard copy of
the notice or save a copy to your hard drive for your own records.
3.2 Goods supplied to you by Plants by Post will correspond with their
prices and description. If at any time this is not the case Plants
by Post will give you the right to reject the goods within a reasonable
time period for a full refund. Under no circumstances will Plants
by Post accept any liability beyond the value of the contract.
4. Right to cancel
4.1 You have the right to cancel any contract within 7 working days
without giving any reason. The 7 working days will start the day after
receipt of the goods.
4.2 The cancellation notice should be sent by e-mail to Plants by
Post and must state your name, a description of the goods or services
concerned and the contract reference number of the cancelled contract.
4.3 Where Plants by Post have supplied goods to you, you must take
reasonable care of the goods in your possession pending their return
to Plants by Post. Plants by Post will only accept the returned goods
in their original packaging. Any use of the delivered goods beyond
that necessary to inspect the goods on delivery will invalidate your
right to cancel the contract.
4.4 Where Plants by Post have supplied goods to you, these goods must
be returned to Plants by Post, or be available for collection by Plants
by Post. The cost of returning goods is non-refundable, and where
Plants by Post collects goods, the direct cost of such will be deducted
from the refund. Plants by Post reserves the right to apply a 10% restocking
charge. Other than for faulty returns, the original cost of sending
the goods will also be deducted from the final refund.
4.5 Once notice of your cancellation has been received, Plants by
Post will make a refund of the contract price to your debit or credit
card used to purchase the goods.
4.6 All monies will be refunded within 30 days of cancellation date.

for loss of business, loss of sales, non payment of sums due, loss

arising from the following.
6.3.1 In cases where losses were not foreseeable to both parties when
the contract was formed.
6.3.2 Where losses were not caused by any breach on the part of Plants
by Post.
